The CS-5100 automated blood coagulation analyzer from Sysmex utilizes simultaneous multi-wavelength analysis to help deliver quality routine and specialized testing for high-volume laboratories. Built to enable labs to streamline and simplify workload, the system can consolidate a range of hemostasis testing in a single instrument, with transmitted light detection for clot analysis, and chromogenic, immunoturbidimetric, and aggregation technology for specialty testing. Offering a high throughput to tackle large workloads, the system enables optional connectivity to total laboratory automation (TLA) systems; preanalytical sample checks for hemolysis, icterus, and lipemia, as well as tube fill volume; cap piercing and the ability to process sample racks with mixed tube types; and rule-based rerun and reflex testing to maximize walkaway capability.
